By comparing different materials and their benefits, the manual presents a quick reference guide that shows common materials suitable for use in commercial and military applications. The guide lists common conductive elastomer materials along with appropriate fillers and binders for them.
It also evaluates its level of protection and corrosion resistance in aluminum and details whether the materials meet the requirements of MIL-DTL-83528.
Information on the performance of sheets and extrusions has also been updated with new test data on compression and deflection behavior.
Another feature is the improved part number generator for molded parts, which makes it easier to create the part number for the product that the design engineer wants.
With an extensive section on conductive elastomer gaskets, advice on selecting corrosion-resistant materials, a detailed section on physical performance, and a comprehensive Parker Chomerics product catalog, the engineering handbook is a complete guide to designing conductive elastomer applications.
